Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 First make the puff pastry: mix 200g of all-purpose flour and 100g of peanut oil and knead evenly.

   

2. 2 Then make the water-based dough: 200g all-purpose flour, 30g fine sugar, 100g water, and 30g peanut oil. Pour them all together, mix well, and knead into a dough.

   

3. 3 grams of water-oil skin and 8 grams of butter skin. Divide and set aside.

   

4. 4 Take a dough ball and flatten it into a round shape, and place the dough ball in the middle.

   

5. 5 Then wrap it up with the seam facing downwards.

   

6. 6 Sprinkle a little all-purpose flour on the cutting board, use a rolling pin to roll the dough into an oval shape, and then roll it up from top to bottom.

   

7. 7 The rolled dough is again rolled into a long shape using a rolling pin.

   

8. 8 Then roll it up from top to bottom. Once everything is done, cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 15 minutes.

   

9. 9 At this time, divide the filling into 12 grams each and roll into small balls. This is my homemade oil-free, low-sugar mung bean filling.

   

10. 10 Take a piece of rested dough and roll it out.

    

11. 11 Place the mung bean filling in the middle, wrap it up, and seal it downwards.

    

12. 12 Flatten with your hands.

    

13. 13 Place in baking pan. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees in advance, place the baking sheet in the middle of the oven, and bake for 15 minutes.

    

14. 14 Take out, turn the mung bean cake over, put the upper layer on it, and bake in the oven at 200 degrees for another 15 minutes.

    

15. 15 The baked mung bean cake is so crispy that the skin falls off when touched. After cooling, store in a sealed box and be careful to prevent moisture.
